I’m thinking of getting this same tank.. how are you liking the flow with only one MP10?

The IM return pump is pretty powerful on it's own. The MP10 is probably not needed at all for this tank, but that's because it's a species specific tank and carpet nems don't like a lot of flow especially anything direct.

In most cases one MP10 would be fine. In a heavy acro tank I'd go with two and call it a day.
